CONGRATS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Missing your videos but glad you got to share this..you look awesome too !!! My grandson got to come home a few weeks ago then to more training in Texas now he's back in Germany..
Stahp 😭😭 I didn't think people would actually go watch the video. Seriously so glad I got to know you more at BEAST, as trash as that place was 👀🤣🤣 absolutely keeping in touch 🥰
Winkler!!!!! It was a pleasure to be in the same flight with you and even more of a pleasure to get to know as a person!!!! I appreciate all the times you helped me throughout our 7 1/2 wks together, you’re the real dorm chief. May god bless you and your beautiful family
Freaking staaaaaahp!!! Ugh, I miss you dorm chief! Always just tryin to help! I appreciate you and all that you did for the flight! So proud of you, and I can't wait to see all the great things you do!!! 💜
Wow, this made me seriously tear up. Congratulations! Husband is retired AF so I can appreciate your sacrifice. You’re going to be amazing! Love from 🇮🇹
Congratulations!!!!! You’re awesome!! 🎉 this made me tear up a bit! hope you’ll see the boys again really soon! Excited to see what’s to come in your journey, thanks for taking us along 🥰
Congrats Airman! Having a military family is great where both people are in the service. My brother and I were both in the army at the same time. He was an Army Medic.
Congratulations! I’m glad you’re back. And, it was great to see your boys. I’m really enjoying all the differences with you in the AF now, and my time in USA back in the late 70’s.
Awe I literally am in tears. I tried to wait and not watch this until I saw you and talked to you. But seeing this video I was crying. I am so proud of you Mandy! You talked about this day so much and it’s so wonderful to see you achieve greatness. 🫶🏽
Ahhhhhh Oregon!!! I was just talking to Liliedahl about you yesterday! I loved every second of getting to know you too! Thank you! You're gonna do great things and I can't wait to hear all about it! 🥰🥰
Congratulations lady you did it. My mommy heart when Calvin tapped you out girl I was crying such happy tears. I am so excited to hear and see all the amazing things you will do in the airforce and I can't wait till you are back home with ur boys. 💗
Congratulations Mandy!! Im so happy for you and your family. Cant wait to hear from you again. You look amazing and i hope you and Calvin and Travis see each other again very soon. I cried so hard when you guys reunited 🥹. So beautiful!
I know we don't know each other but I AM SO PROUD OF YOU! I have been thinking about enlisting but I've been a loser my whole life and am terrified to join. I can't imagine being away from my son for those months. You did it though. You made it. You succeeded! Please don't judge me, but you have no idea how much of an inspiration you are to me for this! I hope that all your dreams come true and want to thank you right now for stepping up for all of us civilians! You freaking rock and you are a wingman, leader and warrior! Cheers from Memphis!
I would never judge someone for not yet living out their dreams. It took me over 10 years to finally start my dream. That's why I make these videos. Sure they're like little video scrapbooks I can look back on later but more importantly they can help other people. There aren't many people that are willing to leave their kids to go and join the military later in their lives - I did that. I hope to encourage, support and inspire others to do the same. I appreciate your kind words and I hope you can find it within yourself to stop the doubt and go chase your dream too. Thank you 💜
Congratulations again! Your persistence is truly inspiring! And thank you for letting us take part in your graduation ceremony! Also big congrats on doing so great!
Congratulations! I don't know you personally, but I am proud of you! It's not an easy road you choose, especially with Calvin in your life. But you made it! I am excited to watch you on your path further ahead. Keep going, girl ☺️!
Oh my gosh, congratulations!! I’ve been sending good vibes your way. I graduated from BMT in 2001 and worked at Wilford Hall at Lackland for many years. Can’t wait to watch and hear about your new experiences. ❤️❤️
@@ProjectWink you definitely won’t fail! You are super motivated. Getting Honor Grad is a huge accomplishment and I’m sure Tech school won’t be as stressful as you might think once you get into a routine. I was a mental health specialist and the training was a bit fast paced because you do a lot of school work and training in a short amount of time, but it wasn’t too ridiculous. I miss seeing the jack rabbits at 5am during PT in Texas😀
I was so excited to see there was a video from you! I was wondering when your graduation was, I knew it had to be soon. I got a little teary when you picked Calvin up and he just hung on to you so tight. I’m sure it’s been a little hard on him. Going back to California was probably hard for both of them. How long is tech school? I’m assuming they are going to assign you to Travis since your Travis is stationed there. Anyway, I knew you could do it and you deserve to be proud of yourself! Thanks again for your willingness to serve our country😊
I wanted to get a video of it posted as soon as I could. So many people were so invested in this journey, I felt it was only right. It was really hard to see them go. 😬 I think it was harder on Travis and I than Calvin lol. It's about 4 months. Yeah, I'm working on the joint spouse paperwork right now. Thank you Valerie!
Congratulations, tech school next. I remember BMT and then on to Sheppard AFB for tech school,. 50 years ago medical AF training and was there. Time went so fast, so proud of your accomplishments. Karen
@@ProjectWinkYour made it through BMT. The you and the AF thought that your AFSC was a good fit for you. Your teachers will want you to succeed. Whenever you leave the military you will have a career path will help you find a job. Who knows maybe you'll decide to take up an RN degree. Big hugs for your acomplishments
@@ProjectWink well we were born and raised here is probably the only reason I could give but we all just stay in air conditioning now! But just be careful with all the hard work y’all have to do!

Congratulations beautiful we’re all so proud of you!!
Thanks girl!
So proud of you, congratulations!!!
Thank you so much! Hard to believe I finally did it 🤗
We didn't have ceremonies when I went Air Force BMT in 1970. The day after our our last day of training I just got on bus going to Sheppard AFB.
They've had a graduation ceremony for many years now. At least the last 20 years.
We still shipped out to tech school the very next morning. 🙃
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE
My pleasure🥰
Totally just teared up to this video! Congratulations! Brought back memories from when my husband graduated bmt!
Thanks girl!!
Congratulations!!!
Congratulations again!
Your persistence is truly inspiring!
And thank you for letting us take part in your graduation ceremony!
Also big congrats on doing so great!
Thank you so much!!!

That's exactly how this is. Super fast paced. Lots of info at once. 🥴 I'm so nervous about it. Lol

Congratulations!
I'm surprised how modern those barracks.....uh, dorms look.
Are you 344 TRS?
Dorms lol yeah I think they said they were built in 2010, but they already have a plan to tear these all down and build new ones 👀
383 TRS
😱goosebumps!
Congratulations! I'm so proud of you - and so happy for you! :)
Thank you so much!!!
Congratulation
Good job.
Way to go
You go girl! Welcome to Texas. Sorry it’s so hot but that’s just the way Texas is!
I don't know how people live here lol
@@ProjectWink well we were born and raised here is probably the only reason I could give but we all just stay in air conditioning now! But just be careful with all the hard work y’all have to do!
I knew you were going to rock it at BMT. How long is your tech school?
Thank you so much!!! That was truly the hope!
Congrats
Hi
No "bus driver" dress blue hats? You should have seen the barracks I had. Down the street they had buildings from WWII......
My husband was in the oldest buildings too lol. They're now called Alcatraz ha ha.
No, no bus driver hats now lol
Sam houston?
Yep!
I guess there were no openings in the real military? U.S. Navy. lol
Bahahahaha my asvab scores were too high 🤷🏻♀️🤣
Question. But congratulations btw but did y’all go into the gas chamber?
We did not.
I guess I'll never understand why anyone would want to mark their bodies up with tattoos.
You're probably right.
